Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned (1999)
Another good addition to the series
The Gabriel Knight 3 was a great addition to the 3D rendered mystery games. Tim Curry, back in the body of Gabriel, was a very wise decision of the producer. They needed to get rid of the flesh puppet called Gabriel in GK2.
Once again Jane Jenson has proved to be worth her weight in gold. She immersed us, the player, into the small french town of Rennes-le-Chateau and characters with questionable motives. The graphics were wonderful especially if you have a high end videocard. The music was properly placed to assist in the already spectacular mood immersion. I only have one complaint in this game, and that is it wasn't long enough, but then again I am from the old school in which games should take forever to win. I can't wait untill GK4 comes out.
Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers (1993)
An awesome game
This is one of my favorite computer games of all time. The plot is great, the dialog is wonderful, and the voices are fabulous. The voice over cast did some prime work here. Tim Curry, one of my favorite actors, voice was perfect for the part of Gabriel with his cutting wit and vocal charm. Garce Nakimura, played by Leah Remini, was also great for fending of Gabriel's advances and still being a great friend. Leah unfortunately didn't star in the later two games in the series which in my view was a great loss. Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Father still can make my skin craw which is no small feat for this seasoned veteran. I have been gaming since Zork 1 and Wizardry 1 were brand new games. I give this game a A++++
